Also, be prepared to play:
Prepared music chosen by yourself which demonstrates your musical strengths (usually a solo
or etude). This music should last between 30 seconds and 4:00. You may be asked to play only
part of the solo in the interest of time. If you want an accompanist, please make your request at
least 2 days before the audition, but we cannot guarantee availability. In lieu of this prepared
music, you may choose to play a sight-reading excerpt which will be provided at the audition.
YOU MAY CHOOSE ANY PERCUSSION INSTRUMENT FOR THIS PORTION OF THE
